What's the most dangerous hand in poker?

[rufininha14]

The hand that hurt me the most is JJ; whenever I go all in with JJ, I lose.

 

[Mag_P1e]

I completely agree with you! I constantly find myself in spots against AK, and there's nothing I can do about it. AQ is JJ in "Ax world"

For me, it's AQ - looks great, but gets
me in trouble so often! Which hand always tricks you?

Honestly? Ace-King (A♠ K♣) is often called the most dangerous hand in poker.

Not because it’s bad—but because it looks unbeatable, so players get married to it and end up losing big pots when it doesn’t connect. It’s the classic “premium hand that misses the flop” trap.

Pocket Jacks get an honorable mention too—great until any overcard shows up and suddenly you’re praying.

Cards which are good, but can be dominated, like AQ, KQ, KJ etc. Hitting TP with good kicker can be dangerous.
AK as well - this hand "requires" 3betting/4betting and so can make you all-in or pot-commited (or almost) before the flop against AA or KK...

K6...))) At one time they were the best maps for me))) Incredible coincidences... And then the fairy tale ended, and sometimes I still play pranks on them out of habit...)))

 

[flattershay]

Top pairs with low kickers. I've lost a lot of hands with this combo.

 

[ponistra7]

I've been usually losing with pocket AA

 

[primetime78]

Has to be 7-2 not suited

 

[Rachidao]

AK for me, often loosing against small pairs.

 

[Shadow6969]

AA because they always bust especially for me not for everyone 😞

 

[Kaaskop63]

For me its KK

 

[csabika94]

Ace King ❤️❤️

 

[Kaaskop63]

Some hand with an 8 in it,always a problem for me

 

[Oxinthewater]

When deep, JJ so often leads to problems , and when shallow it's AK.

AJ probably looks like a good starting hand, but you can lose a lot because of J.

 

[Brigistul]

Any JJ-AA pair is dangerous because everyone who owns it tends to bet all-in and lose in the showdown! Especially JJ, when theoretically it can be a weak hand if the opponents have A, K or A, and a pair of 2-2 wins by forming a set or a color, etc.!

 

[TCeNTuRioN]

In the ICM lines it will always be Kao GL always!!!

[pavel1111111]

AA ..îs the most dangerous hand , in my oponion...when You have it îs pretty much decide your faith in the tornament...in cash games îs easy...rebuy 😂😂

 

[marco198121]

Historically, I think it was AJ and AQ. It seems like there's always someone with AK at the same time.

 

[UngureanuDan]

AK because it look like a very strong hand but 70% of the time is not in my opinion!

 

[ratbat615]

I like this question without a doubt it has to be AK I have been knocked out and I have knocked out players with this hard.

 

[thedarkman]

An unraised big blind. Always.

 

[Dougana]

AQ, I love that hand, and I lost most of the time .

 

[ankurdholakiya]

Most “dangerous” hands are just the ones we overplay — JJ, QQ, AQ, AK, even AA. They’re great preflop, but postflop they need discipline. The trouble starts when we get attached and stop listening to the board and the action. Sometimes the strongest move with a premium hand is knowing when to let it go.

 

[ThreeeBigB]

If I raise to 4bb with AA, they usually call with all their crap cards and they get their hand on the flop, so I always go all-in preflop.

That sounds like the recipe for a bed beat story!
